We sing
RENT
Everywhere
All the
Time

We're cool
We switch
Parts

And laugh
When Maureen
Moos
When Angel
Sings

Cry when
She dies
When Roger
Sings about
Glory

We love
La Vie Boheme

We trip
Over the
Lyrics
Stumble
Over pronunciations

And still
We sing

Who is the best Glinda/Galinda?

Who is the best Elphaba?

Who is the best Sweeney Todd?

For Sweeney Todd fans: Who is the best Mrs. Lovett?

Behind Musicals

Submitted by Professor_Zoom on March 22, 2008 - 21:05.

Hi. I'm Zoom, and I'm here to explain the nature of musicals. You may think that musicals are wonderful, with their catchy lyrics, and their happy protagonist who end up in love or everything turns out all right for them...and you'd be horribly, horribly wrong. You see, behind every single musical is something very sinister and evil.
